Best WLM Reviews

This place was great. The atmosphere was lovely and bubbly. The place looks welcoming, unique and it’s clean and well maintained. The staff was very attentive and kind. Oh- and the food was delicious. Definitely try the brisket and the mac and cheese. Their Trenton burger is genuinely genius. Who would’ve thought putting pork roll instead of bacon could be such a success? Well they sure did. Their cornbread is an absolute highlight, it is just right. We got so much food for very affordable prices. Highly recommended going here.
Good experience, good food we had the pork roll sandwich (excellent!!) And the pulled pork sandwich, which were a good portion as well. The girls who worked there were friendly and nice, even though they were very busy.
I felt welcome and I enjoyed myself here.
I do recommend you come check out this joint, has a good vibe! I will come back again.
I ordered through Door Dash, and it arrived in 35 minutes. The food was warm to the taste and delicious. Meat fell off the bones, and every bite was intense with flavor. I highly recommend this establishment for food enthusiasts.. I gave the atmosphere 3 stars because I wasn't physically there and can't speak to it. However, I could not deny that any place that creates these kinds of dishes would have a poor atmosphere.
The brisket nachos we got were awesome, they came steaming hot and piled with salsa, meat, and cheese. The ribs were also very good and well spiced. The mac & cheese and the peach cobbler were subpar.
My guest and I both agreed that the pulled pork sandwich was under seasoned, and I shouldn't have to cover my sandwich in BBQ sauce for flavor. The coleslaw was tastier than the pork (I got it Smokehouse Style). The bun was nice. My fries ???? were standard, and the mozzarella sticks were cold ????. The service was nice (bartender has an awesome personality), but I had to go to the bar to initiate my order after the bartender informed my large attractive server that we were dining in. We waited 10 - 15 mins before I asked the bartender if she would take our order. We know lunch is a busy time, but I had the feeling staff (kitchen included) just walked in @ 10:15 am, and didn't have time to prepare for the day. I will definitely go back if not just to try 1 Rib and some peach ???? cobbler. I wanna like the food and it's so conveniently close to my job. I hope my next experience is better.
If you need a good BBQ in NJ, this would be on the top list. We ordered a 444 sampler which was worth it, but not without having the two delicious sauces; 1911 and Kansas City (Honestly I think it would be hit to sell these two in grocery stores). They also have their own bottle of 1911 sauce for sale at the restaurant. Something I think could be worked on is the peach cobler as it wasn't something noteworthy (maybe just needs honey and more crisp?)
John greeted us friendly with smiles, the Aroma of good quality BBQ hits your nose as soon a s you walk in . The flavor of every sauce is exquisite. My favorite sauces are the jerk and the Razzle Dazzle but Chef DaRon, aka Chef Razzle Dazzle. I'm in love with the California Salad with the Salmon ,the dressing that comes with the Salad is unique island flavor. I added shrimp which were cooked to perfection. Also had the grilled original wings . Everything is Devine.
Waiting on my cobbler
This was my first time ordering from 1911 Smoke House BBQ, and they were absolutely amazing and met way above my expectations . The chicken was juicy,tender, and smoked to perfection with tons of flavor.. it has a great rub with a bit of spice but not anything out of control.Now for my ribs they were great as well lots of meat and cooked better than I'd imagined ,my sides Mac N cheese + candied yams were delicious. I'll be definitely ordering all the time now,Thanks to this yummy meal, I highly recommend trying anything off their menu. You won't be disappointed !
